There’s a lot of dialogue here on how poorly Fields is progressing through reads. How he’s not seeing the play unfold & is missing wide open receivers.

My question for yall is, How is Fields supposed to improve upon seeing plays develop when 70% of the plays he sees developing are screen passes?! Practice makes perfect…how often has fields been given a chance to make these throws?

Let’s be real here. Year 1 we had Nagy putting Fields in an offense for Dalton halfway through the season. Toxic culture, awful O-Line and shit product on the field. Everyone knew the writing on the wall for staff the moment our season ended.

Year 2 Mooney was one of, if not the only receiver rostered who wasn’t cut by the team that drafted him. Fields couldn’t do it through the air (shocker) and made shit happen on the ground. We scored points. Everyone on planet earth agreed that he needs to show an ability to throw.

This year, our game plan is running screens. It has always been running screens. The preseason house calls everyone got excited about? Screens. My guess is training camp/practice are all screens too. How is a man supposed to improve on a skill he isn’t practicing?

I’m disappointed in what we’ve seen. I am also not sold on Justin being our QB, even if I am a fan of him the person. What I know for sure is that Justin is not anywhere near the problem in Chicago. Is he the answer? That’s a different question but the blame isn’t his to shoulder.

    I really hate it when people bring inaccurate info into discussions to prove their point. Especially, when trying to argue a pro Fields take in a sub with this amount of toxicity. It just gives the opposition more fuel to hate against their point.

    It’s obvious, if you watch the games, that Getsy was screen heavy in the first 2-3 weeks and allllllllll through off and preseason. He allowed Fields to do his thing for DEN and WAS. Went back to more short stuff against MIN first game before Fields got hurt. Was 50/50 with Bagent. Lions game Fields was doing his thing again and then last night, it’s like Getsy had to make up for all the screens he didn’t call since week 3 lol.

    Like, just watch the games and you’ll easily see when Getsy calls screen heavy games. He really didn’t do that since week 3 and was alot more balanced with it since then, before last night.
